[ As the injection is fully emptied into her lover, Yoimiya is all too happy with her handiwork, his expression twists into something more akin to desperation and it's beautiful. The drug is still very much present in her system, so she knows what he must be going through right now. Bit by bit, the serum should be gripping into his mind, making him see her and only her, he should be feeling like he needs her to breathe, that she's the only comfort he'll ever need, and that there's no meaning to life if Yoimiya isn't present in it.
Ah, it's all so wonderful. Having her precious Ajax rely solely on her is the best feeling in the world, all she'll ever need. Yoimiya too would like nothing more than to give her all to him, but even as the drug has her in a grip, the deep-seated corruption lying in wait pushes her obsessive love to the forefront. She watched a siren kiss him, saw that awful woman try to make a move on her man while they were working on the airship, witnessed a mermaid flirt with him, and finally, watched in agony while those three sirens attempt to take him away forever. No more. From now on, she's not going to allow anyone to stand in the way of their love. Anyone who thinks they might have a chance will be seen as public enemy number one in her eyes. And with this drug, she can keep him locked away with her forever, solving all of her problems.
He's right to call her a devil, behind her sweet honey eyes and angelic face is a devil who is far gone with corruption. Ajax is all she sees, all she needs, and she wants those feelings reciprocated. ]
Submit yourself to me. I'm the only person you'll ever need, Ajax. With me at your side, you won't need anyone or anything else in your life. No one can make you happy the way I do...
[ After depositing the empty syringe on the sink, her hand moves away from his chin, gently gliding across all of his lovely curves and muscles until stopping at his chest. She tenderly places a hand over where his heart should beating profoundly. ]
Let me be the only one who holds the key to your heart.
[Yoimiya's words ring true within him, a solid, irresistible command that settles deep within his heart and banishes all other needs or wants outside of her. He hums quietly in agreement, breath shuttering as his mind complies with her orders, as if he were making the same pledge he'd made to the Tsaritsa herself. Small breaths slip out of him, the word on his lips being yes, yes, hot on her skin as he nuzzles his head further into her. Tartaglia acts as if he's unwilling to break contact with her, like he might panic if he were forced to take a single step away. When she feels where his heart is, it pounds heavily and hard in his chest, quickening in speed once her hand rests firmly upon it.]
You're the only thing I need. The only one I need. Nothing else matters...
[He doesn't need anything. He'll be happy attaching himself to her for the rest of eternity, if that's what she wishes for. His own freedom and agency no longer matters, because what is life without Yoimiya.
Tartaglia's own heart darkens, not realizing that this very wish is taking away something precious to him, but of course, that doesn't matter. All he wants is to give Yoimiya everything she wants and more. And if that means his completely and utter submission, then so be it.]
I'm yours, I pledge myself to you, so do with me what you will. I can't do anything without you, Yoimiya. Please help me...
[ Tartaglia is a strong fighter whose willpower rivals even her own, and deep down inside her addled mind, it wouldn't have been too surprising if her lover was able to withstand this potent drug but as she listens to his words of submission, Yoimiya's heart feels like it's going to burst with joy. Ajax now belongs to her, their souls are bound together for all of eternity. There's no need for her to take precautionary measures just yet but, that doesn't mean she's not concocting schemes to manipulate him into relying solely on her.
She brings one of her hands to the back of his head, her fingers gently comb through his soft ginger locks. I can't do anything without you, Yoimiya. Please help me. those simple but powerful words have her under his hold. From now until the end of the time, she swears to give Ajax everything he'll ever need. Not a single soul is allowed to make him happy the way she does. ]
You're such a good boy, Ajax. I promise you will always have me, you won't need anything from anyone else so long as I'm around. I'm the only one who can give you the world. Now...
[ It pains her to break their connection, she'd like to stay like this forever but the sooner they move to the bedroom, the sooner they will be able to become one once more. Slowly, she shifts her hips upwards, moaning as she delights in the sensation of her tight, wet walls sliding across his length until they break. ]
Why don't we go back to the bedroom? I've been dying to see the gift you got for me. Since it's from you, I just know it's going to be the most amazing present I've ever received.
[Her fingers in his hair bring a wave of comfort over him that causes Childe to melt into her embrace, softly purring as cute little noises bubble up out of him. He'd already loved her praise, but being called a good boy now sends an entire surge of pleasure through him, satisfied and happy that she would endow him with being called good and also promising him the reward of always having her, now and forever. Yoimiya is the only one who can give him everything he's ever wanted, the only one that can help him, the only one that he would ever want to wrap their grip so tightly around him that he could never escape.
A terrible moan growls up out of him as she lifts herself off of him, the sensation of her pussy dragging across his sensitive skin drives his mind downward into something more primal. But all he's left with is emptiness, as the warm water around him is all he has now as she gets off of him, much to his dismay. But her suggestion breaks through all of his own wants and needs- Yoimiya wants to go to the bedroom now, like he'd suggested earlier. She reminds him of the gift he wants to give her, and he nods slowly as his drugged gaze looks up at her in admiration, examining all of her naked beauty in front of him. A perfect, angelic form that stands in front of him, no wonder she's the only one who could ever be for him, and for a second it leaves him breathless as he struggles to form words to respond.]
Yes, of course. I do hope you like it...I'll be devastated if my one true love doesn't approve. I picked it out myself.
[His words are light and playful, expression completely besotted as he looks up and smiles at her. Giving her this gift was supposed to be the highlight of the night, and now that he's lost himself completely to her, it only feels right that she can lock him in now with yet another item. She'd surprised him with the bond rings already, but this would be far more symbolic for now, to bind himself to her forever.]
Come...I can't stand any moment where I'm not intertwined with you. Let's hurry off so we can continue.
[Standing up himself now from the bath, he gets out, holding his hand out to help her out first before getting a towel and quickly drying himself off so they can head to the bedroom.]
[ Those sweet, adorable purrs bubbling out and that spine-tingling moan... Ajax's happiness and satisfaction are truly all she cares about, her sole purpose, and the reason why she was born. If he's devastated, then her heart will break into two. Yoimiya couldn't bear to live with the knowledge of upsetting the love of her life. The look of pure undying love shimmering behind his eyes is the most picturesque sight she's ever witnessed, a lovely expression Yoimiya vows to protect with her life.
His playful words earn him a cute giggle and an expression enamored with adoration. Ajax's love is worth more than priceless treasure, he is her gift, anything from his hands will always be cherished. No one's presents make her happy more than Ajax's.
Following his lead, she takes his hand while grabbing a nearby towel to dry her wet skin. Likewise, she can't stand another second of their separation and thus, spurred by her desire to connect with him once more, she's quick to dry her body off before heading to the bedroom. Once finished, she glances over at Ajax with a soft smile, reaching over to take his hand and lead him to the bedroom. ]
I love you Ajax. You look magnificent even when you're wet...
[ The trip to their sleeping chambers is just a few steps away but even so, Yoimiya can't help herself as she administers some well-earned affection to him. Nuzzling her face into his biceps while soaking in his tantalizing scent that's driving her further into the depths of obsession. ]
[Now that they're both dried off, he gingerly takes her hand to be led back into their bedroom, the night sky shining down on them from the giant window that gives the room an ethereal feel as soft moonlight filters in through the glass. As she nuzzles into him, he looks down at her with a gentle expression, delighted to see her so happy content on his arm. The glow from a small lamp turned on next to their bed leads the way, bringing her to the edge of it as he chuckles quietly at her compliment.]
I love you too Yoimiya...you're too kind. If it suits you, we can certainly have sex in the bath more often. I do enjoy seeing how the water glistens on your skin, it arouses me in a whole different way than here in the bedroom.
[He sits down on the edge of the bed, prompting her to sit along with him so his hands can begin to wander across her body as his head gets nuzzled against her own. Tartaglia takes the time to appreciate her curves, pressing the pads of his fingers into her skin lovingly as he hums with content.]
My gorgeous, pristine Yoimiya...perhaps I'll make love to you underwater one day, just for the experience of it. But let's not get too distracted. I want to give you your gift now...
[His voice trails off as he loses himself in her and her scent, fresh and sweet from the bath and soap. The combination of her body and her scent seem to have him mesmerized with her, a willing slave to her every beck and call, the drug in his system locking him into a desperate need for Yoimiya that leaves him only wanting for her direction. Small, needy kisses get pressed to her neck, as a small bit of tribute to her, to express his devotion.
But one hand begins to reach towards the nightstand next to the bed, where he's hidden the gift, and he stealthily pulls out a small box and palms it in his hand.]
[ Ajax has the power to sweep her off her feet with not only his touch but his sweet words of praise as well. There's not a single soul who can compliment her the way he does. She wastes no time joining him at the bed, purring and melting with joy at his soft ginger curls nuzzling into her skin. Yoimiya will always be happiest when she's at his side and she isn't shy about showing it, as indicated by soft mewls spilling out of her lips from his hands sweeping across her body.
Making love with him underwater sounds like a dream come true. Yoimiya would love a chance to bask in her lover's splendor while he's submerged in his natural element, she just knows Ajax will have an ethereal quality against the ocean's surface with sunlight shimmering down upon him as they enjoy each other's bodies. The only thing that would make that moment even better is if they have sex right after killing a few more of those terrible sirens. Still reeling from what those three monsters did to them last time, Yoimiya's thirst for revenge still has yet to be fully satiated. She makes a note to run the idea by him later, knowing full well her beloved would also want to exact his own vengeance. But he's right, now is not the time to get distracted, not when her sweet, perfect Ajax is about to bestow a wonderful gift to her.
She watches him grab a small object from the nightstand, her golden eyes swirling with corruption has the faintest bit of light to them, sparkling upon realizing he's placing a small box in the palm of his hand. ]
Oh, Ajax... is that what I think it is?
[ A small box similar to the one she got for their anniversary present... she has a feeling she knows what's inside. ]
[Feeling how she delights in his hands caressing her, it almost hurts to have to break away to fetch the box out of the drawer, but he knows it'll be well worth it. The Harbinger looks up to her with a committed, ardent expression on his face, thoughts deeply engrossed with the idea of tying himself to Yoimiya until he no longer draws breath. The item that lies inside the box is truly a gift that symbolizes the deep seated corruption that's spread to the both of them via the bond they share, a power Childe unknowingly unleashed upon his own girlfriend until it festered and engulfed them both- and without another moment's hesitation, he nods and answers the question.]
It is, but it may not exactly be what you think. We spoke about it only briefly, but it's been on my mind ever since, so I wanted to show my utter devotion and loyalty to you with this simple gift.
[Ajax opens the box to reveal a ring, as dark as the very abyssal corruption that flows through their veins and has taken over their minds. He presents it to her, eyes pleading for her to put it on and accept his pledge to her, hoping with all his heart she would find it acceptable as a symbol of his love to her. It seems to absorb the very moonlight streaming in to shrine with an eerie radiance, of something ageless and evil that stirs in their blood and commands their thoughts.]
It's my promise to you, that one day, you and I will be joined for all of eternity. I'd like to go pick out a real engagement ring for you soon, as it's my hope that we would be wed here in the near future. But for now, please take this as my pledge that I'll make you my wife one day, and that I will always serve you without hesitation as your devoted partner, no matter which title I don.
[He watches with bated breath to see her reaction, to see how she looks wearing it, eyes wide with anticipation as the love of his life finally gets to receive the gift he's been hiding from her for a bit now.]
Tell me what you think...my days have been plagued with worry over if you'd like this or not.
[ Yoimiya had a hunch that a piece of precious jewelry was tucked away inside that tiny box. An actual engagement ring might be too early in the cards but what he presents her floods her with the same overwhelming happiness as a proposal would have. The most beautiful ring she's ever seen awaits her inside that box, rendering her speechless as she stares at it. Her sunlight eyes light up at the precious treasure, an arrangement of sparkling amethysts, aquamarine, diamonds, and opals decorate the band and the centerpiece that completes it, a dark gemstone embedded with the colors of their abyssal corruption.
There are no others to describe it other than beautiful. This ring is the perfect representation of their obsessive, twisted love for one another. A promise that they will always be together and that there will be a day Ajax makes her his wife. She looks forward to the day of their long-awaited wedding but for now, Yoimiya is over the moon with this lovely promise ring. ]
Ajax...
[ His name escapes her lips with a cross between a breathless whisper and a loving sigh. Truly the most thoughtful, amazing anniversary present she could ask for. Tears well up in her eyes as she gingerly takes the ring, placing it on her finger alongside the red string ring that binds their souls together. Once the emotions have passed, she'll be amused that they are so like-minded, that they got each other rings as gifts. ]
It's so beautiful. You no longer have to worry because I love it, thank you. It's my greatest joy to know that one day, I'll be your wife and we can live as a happy family together. No matter how long it takes, I'll always wait for you as your faithful partner. You're the one who has my heart, the one I wish to be with for all of eternity.
[Yoimiya's reaction fills him with a sense of relief and warmth, happy that she likes it so much, cuddling up further into her like a content puppy who's happy to be connected to its master. Her words of praise over his choice of gift elates him like nothing else, his heart beating hard in his chest as he admires how pretty it is on her finger. A physical representation of how she belongs to him, and the ring on his own finger being a literal bond of his soul to hers...he couldn't be more happy about this arrangement. Everything he could ever want is in his hands, nuzzling his head into her, breathing in her scent as he begins to get lost in her.]
I'm glad...I love you so much. I really wanted to get you something that truly represented our love for each other. When I saw that ring, I was immediately drawn to it. I couldn't help but notice how close it resembles the color of your sword, that everlasting bond you have with me- so I couldn't pass it up.
[Now, he wants to lavish on her all of his pronounced feelings for her, submissive and willing to do whatever she likes from the rest of the night out. The drug continues to dull his ambitions and hyperfocuses on the woman in front of him, as if she were the only thing that existed in the entire universe, and everything else was just a grayed out blur around him. Yoimiya is his entire world, and everything just falls off to the wayside.]
It makes me happy to know that you'll let me wed you. It's all I can think about. I promise I won't make you wait terribly long before I propose, but I do want to make sure I get it just right.
[Tartaglia starts to kiss her neck, pleading to let him service her, to make him bow to her will as if he were unable to do anything else without her permission. He needs her, wants her to break him, his mind nothing but a mess of thoughts of Yoimiya that swirl around in his head endlessly. He loves her, he can't do anything without her.
Those emotions float to the surface as he lets out tiny whines while he administers affection to her, aching for her to command him to pleasure her as she sees fit. It's all he wants or cares for, hands wandering across her body to find her sweet sensitive spots and press into them, deft fingers pinching her nipples and sweeping down towards her groin to brush over her inner thigh.]
So until then, my love...accept my pledge, and allow me to drown you with affection for the rest of the night.
[ Ajax's kindness never fails to fill her heart to the brim with warmth and love. He's so thoughtful, so considerate, the only person that will ever matter in her life, and just when she thought her love for him was like an endless ocean, he somehow manages to sink her into his depths and submerge her into falling deeper in love with him. This hauntingly beautiful ring will forever be one of her most cherished treasures, and with the knowledge he picked it out because of their sword, she adores it all the more. Oh, how she can't wait to wear this ring with her sword in hand to smite down anyone foolish enough to stand between them.
When that time comes, she hopes Tartaglia will be proud of her. She lives and breathes to be a wife worthy of standing by his side. ]
I love you too, Ajax. I love you with all of my heart.
[ So madly and passionately that it sometimes hurts, her heart can't help but ache for him. If anything were to drive them apart, she wouldn't be able to live with herself. What's the point of life if it doesn't have her precious Ajax? He's already sworn his loyalty to her but she can't trust other people to keep their grubby paws off of him. Just thinking about it makes her blood boil, Ajax belongs to her, and if she can't have him then nobody can.
Just to be on the safe side, she needs to ensure he'll never leave her side. A terrible, selfish idea begins to take shape in the confines of her corrupted mind. ]
My dearest Ajax, it will be my honor to accept your pledge. You're always so kind and thoughtful, I know that when the time is right, you'll come up with a proposal that's going to make me the happiest woman in the whole universe. For now, I just want to drown your affections and spend the rest of my evening with you alone. You can have your way with me as you please...
[ Oh, he lavishes her so well. His lips, his hands, his body heat, she needs his touch more than air itself. She moans and tilts her head to the side, allowing him to drink in her to satisfy his hunger, those tantalizing touches make her skin feel like it's on fire, the efforts of his fingers are swiftly rewarded with her nipples growing hard for him once again. All she wants to do is lay down on the bed so he can fulfill his desires, her core yearns for their connection. But first things first.
While he's distracted by the inside of her thighs, Yoimiya takes this as a chance to stealthily slide a hand underneath her pillow where another syringe filled with the drug is hidden. Utensil in hand, she's quick to poke him again, not giving him a chance to respond as she presses down on the tab, injecting him once more. With a giggle so sickeningly sweet, the stare behind her corrupted golden eyes is overflowing with an obsessive love for Ajax that's about to spill over and spiral her down the path of no return. ]
I love you, so, so, so, so much Ajax. Stay here with me forever. Don't think about anyone else, don't look at anyone else. I'm all you need to be happy.
[Never failing to fill him with satisfaction and happiness, her words and moans further drive him on to prep her body once again for another round of incredible sex. Her praise is like a symphony in his ears, her declaration to allow him to use her to indulge in his own sexual whims, it's so much that he can't help but let out a voracious moan when he thinks about what he'll do to her tonight. Everything is for Yoimiya, to make her squeal with delight, to get her to squirm helplessly and drown in the pleasure he'll bring to her. It's the utmost honor for him to be able to do so, and he plans on satisfying her for the rest of his life.
Tartaglia lets out a satisfied sigh as her nipples grow hard again beneath his fingertips, absolutely distracted by her breasts as he leans down to suck gently on one, tongue rolling lazily over it. Drunk on her body, he doesn't notice how Yoimiya slips her hand underneath her pillow to retrieve the second syringe until he feels the sharp, cold needle puncture his skin. Ajax's eyes widen in surprise, not understanding what's happening until he looks over to see yet another needle in him, this one already emptied completely before he even had the chance to react.]
Wha...
[His voice is confused, already in a daze from the high of Yoimiya's love, her body, and their connection, and there's only a few moments before the world spins and turns upside down.
That helpless feeling he'd had, filled only by the presence of Yoimiya doubles, a pathetic moan spilling out of his mouth, his mouth separating from her breast as his mind loses any sense of agency he might of had. He's not sure what's happening, if the drug she'd injected into him is having some kind of adverse affects on his body, but it doesn't leave him with the ability to do anything about it. Suddenly, his mind focuses in on Yoimiya's voice, her words washing over him like the song of a siren, nodding his head dumbly in response.]
Yes, I...that's right. Yoimiya is all I need. I would never look at anyone else.
[His eyes slowly raise to meet her own, a fog glazing over them now that he seems to be lost in. The radiant golden of her eyes mesmerize him as he gazes deeply into them, eyes half-lidded as he attempts to navigate through the thick fog of Yoimiya's will that's slowly enveloping his thoughts. It's a losing battle as the drug is pumped through his veins, swaying lightly from side to side as he loses control.]
But what about fighting...?
[His question come out as confused, pressing his body to hers with a terrible need, a hunger only for Yoimiya that he can barely restrain.]
Yoimiya...help me, I don't know anymore...
[It's as if the drug gives the corruption more power and sway, and it's a matter of who's more in control of themselves to wield it against the other. Tartaglia is unaware of the battle he's losing, feeling as if he's won everything with this beautiful woman at his side.]
[ Ajax's lips are like fire to her skin, stoking the flames of her need with every pass of his tongue. Even as she plots to drag him down the depths of no return with her, Yoimiya sings a symphony of blissful moans for him, he deserves nothing but the sweetest noises for his efforts and she is going to ensure he receives everything he's ever wanted from her. So long as they pledge their loyalty and vow to never leave each other's side, they will always be happy.
She disposes of the now empty syringe, sitting back to enjoy his descent into helplessness. Ah, she can't get enough of that precious face he makes, looking so confused and hopelessly in love with her all at the same time. Truly is a powerful serum if it's able to make him question the passion he values most. Come to think of it, it was never people she had to worry about...
But what about fighting...?
Fighting has always been her biggest competition to Tartaglia's heart.
Her mind wanders back to the conversation they had at the mermaid village. Even before that fateful day, she knew that the thrill of battle will always be first in his life. Pre corruption Yoimiya had already come to terms with it and was simply happy to support her beloved's goals. But now that the corruption has her fully in its grip, she's choosing to go down the selfish road, wanting to have Ajax all to herself. Maybe deep down inside, the possibility that he'd rather engage in combat than spend time with her has troubled her more than she realized, and the corruption has finally unearthed those raw emotions. No longer does she want to play second fiddle to fighting, this time, she wishes to be his ambition. ]
What about fighting?
[ To further entice him, she brings her hand to the back of his head, pushing his face into her soft, supple chest he enjoys so much. Tenderly, she threads her fingers through his ginger hair, only stopping to give him gentle scratches to his scalp every so often. A silent promise that she'll continue to shower him with affection so long as they're together. ]
I can fill the void in your heart in ways the thrill of combat can't. My unconditional love, my soft body... I can provide you with everything you need to be fully satisfied.
You love me more than battle... [ She trails off her words, her honeyed eyes pleading with him to declare that he loves her more than anything. ] right?
Even that question alone that she poses is enough to get him to ask the same of himself. The way she says it, as if fighting and battle were largely unimportant, or even frivolous. It confuses him as doubt about it creeps into his mind, his thoughts blurry and unclear. What about fighting? Why would he ask such a strange, silly question? He could still fight, but does it truly give him the same amount of joy that Yoimiya, the love of his life, his light in the darkness, gives him? Is battle really the most important thing in his life?
As if she could sense his struggle with the topic, he feels her press his face right into her supple, welcoming breasts. Ajax hums with satisfaction at how her smooth skin graces his own, nuzzling into them lovingly as her fingers card through his hair and soothe his spirit. The motion helps ease the question in his heart, finding a warm solace in her words as she speaks.
Yoimiya is already making him feel incredible in a way that fighting doesn't. Even now, fighting was the furthest from his mind, focusing on her and her alone. He can feel every word she speaks, when she says love he feels himself getting filled with it, when she says my soft body he becomes so much more hyperaware of her and how amazing her body is and how aroused she makes him.
She's truly all he needs, all he wants. Why would he want for anything else?]
Yes...
[He moans the answer to her, leaning into her as one of his hands slips down into her groin to slip his fingers back into her. His hunger is insatiable, his eyes betraying his need as he stares into her own with a silent pledge to be by her side forever.]
I love you more than anything else in this world. Nothing can take your place and nothing could ever be placed above you. My light, my star, my world.
[His own dark need creeps into his voice, making sure to find that sweet spot inside of her as his tone lowers to ask her his own question:]
You too, love me more than anything else, right? Nothing else in this world matters more than me?
[ I love you more than anything else in this world. Nothing can take your place and nothing could ever be placed above you. My light, my star, my world.
At long last, Yoimiya feels like she's finally bested the greatest adversary standing in the way of Tartaglia's heart. Her heart floods with joy as Ajax tells her those words she's been longing to hear, the confirmation that she is more important to him than anyone, anything else. She can see the appeal in fighting, it's exhilarating to come out the victor after a long-fought battle for Ajax's love. A rush of high after overcoming a worthy opponent, she can understand why he's addicted to such a thrilling experience, Yoimiya herself also feels like she is on top of the world.
Pre-corruption Yoimiya would have happily supported her beloved on his journey to become the strongest, a notion she scoffs at now because why did she ever think about sharing this wonderful man to begin with? The Abyssal presence in her soul assures her this is okay, she's just showering him with all the love and affection he deserves, she's won the battle and now it's time to claim her prize; having Ajax all to herself. ]
Oh, Ajax. I love you too... you've made me so happy, it feels like my heart is going to burst— oooh...!
[ He really is so good with his hands, the sensation of his fingers sliding into her wet folds has her aching for more. It's so good, too he's only put a few fingers in but she's already primed to take him once more, her core dampening with every languid stroke. It only gets better when he finds her most sensitive spot, pleasure thrums through her as she gasps and arches her back, rewarding him for his efforts with a sweet symphony of moans and a display of her legs spreading open for him.
As she drowns in his fingers pumping in and out, he poses her the same question. She already knows the answer, Ajax is her one and only ambition. Yoimiya is more than willing to declare her undying devotion to him even as she's moaning and gasping for him. At every opportunity, she will always tell him he's number one in her life. All of her hopes, dreams, and goals are a thing of the past, the love of her life is her future, she doesn't need anything else so long as she has him. ]
I love you more than anything, Ajax. Not even fireworks can compare to you and in my heart, you shine brighter than any firework. There's not a single thing that can take your place, my love. You're my world, the only love of my life, and the one who completes me.
[He'd like to make something else burst too within her besides her heart, and the physical reaction she gives as her back arches is exactly the kind he's looking for right now as he begins to prep her body for another session of sex in their bed. It's almost like a key turning in a lock, made to fit her perfectly and she opens up effortlessly as he slowly finger fucks her when posing his question. A terrible smile unfolds on his face, happy to hear her answer along with that symphony of moans and cries from how good she feels. It spurs him onward to further give Yoimiya everything she craves, ready and willing to offer his body up to her to do with as she pleases.]
Nothing could make me more happy to hear that.
[Ajax's mind, after the double dose of the drug in his system and the intensity of the effect which the corruption in his mind has fueled it, is a mess of absolute submission and devotion coupled with the fervent need for Yoimiya to be his and no one else's as well. Her words lock him into place and seal his fate, satisfied with this scenario and now ready to devote the rest of his very being to Yoimiya, forever.]
Let's celebrate, [he suggests, falling under her spell and pushing her backwards onto the bed to give her the proper attention she deserves.]
Let me pleasure you, please you to no end the rest of the night. I want to show you my utter devotion, that I'm nothing without you, my love.
[And as he lays her down on the bed, Ajax begins to smother her with attention, locking lips with her before she even has the chance to respond and starts to worship her body for the rest of the night. Cries of her name on his lips and eyes that stare up at her with a darkness that begs for her to command it are now the new normal from him- and the two of them drown in each other until the sun rises the next day.]
no subject
Ah, it's all so wonderful. Having her precious Ajax rely solely on her is the best feeling in the world, all she'll ever need. Yoimiya too would like nothing more than to give her all to him, but even as the drug has her in a grip, the deep-seated corruption lying in wait pushes her obsessive love to the forefront. She watched a siren kiss him, saw that awful woman try to make a move on her man while they were working on the airship, witnessed a mermaid flirt with him, and finally, watched in agony while those three sirens attempt to take him away forever. No more. From now on, she's not going to allow anyone to stand in the way of their love. Anyone who thinks they might have a chance will be seen as public enemy number one in her eyes. And with this drug, she can keep him locked away with her forever, solving all of her problems.
He's right to call her a devil, behind her sweet honey eyes and angelic face is a devil who is far gone with corruption. Ajax is all she sees, all she needs, and she wants those feelings reciprocated. ]
Submit yourself to me. I'm the only person you'll ever need, Ajax. With me at your side, you won't need anyone or anything else in your life. No one can make you happy the way I do...
[ After depositing the empty syringe on the sink, her hand moves away from his chin, gently gliding across all of his lovely curves and muscles until stopping at his chest. She tenderly places a hand over where his heart should beating profoundly. ]
Let me be the only one who holds the key to your heart.
no subject
You're the only thing I need. The only one I need. Nothing else matters...
[He doesn't need anything. He'll be happy attaching himself to her for the rest of eternity, if that's what she wishes for. His own freedom and agency no longer matters, because what is life without Yoimiya.
Tartaglia's own heart darkens, not realizing that this very wish is taking away something precious to him, but of course, that doesn't matter. All he wants is to give Yoimiya everything she wants and more. And if that means his completely and utter submission, then so be it.]
I'm yours, I pledge myself to you, so do with me what you will. I can't do anything without you, Yoimiya. Please help me...
no subject
She brings one of her hands to the back of his head, her fingers gently comb through his soft ginger locks. I can't do anything without you, Yoimiya. Please help me. those simple but powerful words have her under his hold. From now until the end of the time, she swears to give Ajax everything he'll ever need. Not a single soul is allowed to make him happy the way she does. ]
You're such a good boy, Ajax. I promise you will always have me, you won't need anything from anyone else so long as I'm around. I'm the only one who can give you the world. Now...
[ It pains her to break their connection, she'd like to stay like this forever but the sooner they move to the bedroom, the sooner they will be able to become one once more. Slowly, she shifts her hips upwards, moaning as she delights in the sensation of her tight, wet walls sliding across his length until they break. ]
Why don't we go back to the bedroom? I've been dying to see the gift you got for me. Since it's from you, I just know it's going to be the most amazing present I've ever received.
no subject
A terrible moan growls up out of him as she lifts herself off of him, the sensation of her pussy dragging across his sensitive skin drives his mind downward into something more primal. But all he's left with is emptiness, as the warm water around him is all he has now as she gets off of him, much to his dismay. But her suggestion breaks through all of his own wants and needs- Yoimiya wants to go to the bedroom now, like he'd suggested earlier. She reminds him of the gift he wants to give her, and he nods slowly as his drugged gaze looks up at her in admiration, examining all of her naked beauty in front of him. A perfect, angelic form that stands in front of him, no wonder she's the only one who could ever be for him, and for a second it leaves him breathless as he struggles to form words to respond.]
Yes, of course. I do hope you like it...I'll be devastated if my one true love doesn't approve. I picked it out myself.
[His words are light and playful, expression completely besotted as he looks up and smiles at her. Giving her this gift was supposed to be the highlight of the night, and now that he's lost himself completely to her, it only feels right that she can lock him in now with yet another item. She'd surprised him with the bond rings already, but this would be far more symbolic for now, to bind himself to her forever.]
Come...I can't stand any moment where I'm not intertwined with you. Let's hurry off so we can continue.
[Standing up himself now from the bath, he gets out, holding his hand out to help her out first before getting a towel and quickly drying himself off so they can head to the bedroom.]
no subject
His playful words earn him a cute giggle and an expression enamored with adoration. Ajax's love is worth more than priceless treasure, he is her gift, anything from his hands will always be cherished. No one's presents make her happy more than Ajax's.
Following his lead, she takes his hand while grabbing a nearby towel to dry her wet skin. Likewise, she can't stand another second of their separation and thus, spurred by her desire to connect with him once more, she's quick to dry her body off before heading to the bedroom. Once finished, she glances over at Ajax with a soft smile, reaching over to take his hand and lead him to the bedroom. ]
I love you Ajax. You look magnificent even when you're wet...
[ The trip to their sleeping chambers is just a few steps away but even so, Yoimiya can't help herself as she administers some well-earned affection to him. Nuzzling her face into his biceps while soaking in his tantalizing scent that's driving her further into the depths of obsession. ]
no subject
I love you too Yoimiya...you're too kind. If it suits you, we can certainly have sex in the bath more often. I do enjoy seeing how the water glistens on your skin, it arouses me in a whole different way than here in the bedroom.
[He sits down on the edge of the bed, prompting her to sit along with him so his hands can begin to wander across her body as his head gets nuzzled against her own. Tartaglia takes the time to appreciate her curves, pressing the pads of his fingers into her skin lovingly as he hums with content.]
My gorgeous, pristine Yoimiya...perhaps I'll make love to you underwater one day, just for the experience of it. But let's not get too distracted. I want to give you your gift now...
[His voice trails off as he loses himself in her and her scent, fresh and sweet from the bath and soap. The combination of her body and her scent seem to have him mesmerized with her, a willing slave to her every beck and call, the drug in his system locking him into a desperate need for Yoimiya that leaves him only wanting for her direction. Small, needy kisses get pressed to her neck, as a small bit of tribute to her, to express his devotion.
But one hand begins to reach towards the nightstand next to the bed, where he's hidden the gift, and he stealthily pulls out a small box and palms it in his hand.]
no subject
Making love with him underwater sounds like a dream come true. Yoimiya would love a chance to bask in her lover's splendor while he's submerged in his natural element, she just knows Ajax will have an ethereal quality against the ocean's surface with sunlight shimmering down upon him as they enjoy each other's bodies. The only thing that would make that moment even better is if they have sex right after killing a few more of those terrible sirens. Still reeling from what those three monsters did to them last time, Yoimiya's thirst for revenge still has yet to be fully satiated. She makes a note to run the idea by him later, knowing full well her beloved would also want to exact his own vengeance. But he's right, now is not the time to get distracted, not when her sweet, perfect Ajax is about to bestow a wonderful gift to her.
She watches him grab a small object from the nightstand, her golden eyes swirling with corruption has the faintest bit of light to them, sparkling upon realizing he's placing a small box in the palm of his hand. ]
Oh, Ajax... is that what I think it is?
[ A small box similar to the one she got for their anniversary present... she has a feeling she knows what's inside. ]
no subject
It is, but it may not exactly be what you think. We spoke about it only briefly, but it's been on my mind ever since, so I wanted to show my utter devotion and loyalty to you with this simple gift.
[Ajax opens the box to reveal a ring, as dark as the very abyssal corruption that flows through their veins and has taken over their minds. He presents it to her, eyes pleading for her to put it on and accept his pledge to her, hoping with all his heart she would find it acceptable as a symbol of his love to her. It seems to absorb the very moonlight streaming in to shrine with an eerie radiance, of something ageless and evil that stirs in their blood and commands their thoughts.]
It's my promise to you, that one day, you and I will be joined for all of eternity. I'd like to go pick out a real engagement ring for you soon, as it's my hope that we would be wed here in the near future. But for now, please take this as my pledge that I'll make you my wife one day, and that I will always serve you without hesitation as your devoted partner, no matter which title I don.
[He watches with bated breath to see her reaction, to see how she looks wearing it, eyes wide with anticipation as the love of his life finally gets to receive the gift he's been hiding from her for a bit now.]
Tell me what you think...my days have been plagued with worry over if you'd like this or not.
no subject
There are no others to describe it other than beautiful. This ring is the perfect representation of their obsessive, twisted love for one another. A promise that they will always be together and that there will be a day Ajax makes her his wife. She looks forward to the day of their long-awaited wedding but for now, Yoimiya is over the moon with this lovely promise ring. ]
Ajax...
[ His name escapes her lips with a cross between a breathless whisper and a loving sigh. Truly the most thoughtful, amazing anniversary present she could ask for. Tears well up in her eyes as she gingerly takes the ring, placing it on her finger alongside the red string ring that binds their souls together. Once the emotions have passed, she'll be amused that they are so like-minded, that they got each other rings as gifts. ]
It's so beautiful. You no longer have to worry because I love it, thank you. It's my greatest joy to know that one day, I'll be your wife and we can live as a happy family together. No matter how long it takes, I'll always wait for you as your faithful partner. You're the one who has my heart, the one I wish to be with for all of eternity.
no subject
I'm glad...I love you so much. I really wanted to get you something that truly represented our love for each other. When I saw that ring, I was immediately drawn to it. I couldn't help but notice how close it resembles the color of your sword, that everlasting bond you have with me- so I couldn't pass it up.
[Now, he wants to lavish on her all of his pronounced feelings for her, submissive and willing to do whatever she likes from the rest of the night out. The drug continues to dull his ambitions and hyperfocuses on the woman in front of him, as if she were the only thing that existed in the entire universe, and everything else was just a grayed out blur around him. Yoimiya is his entire world, and everything just falls off to the wayside.]
It makes me happy to know that you'll let me wed you. It's all I can think about. I promise I won't make you wait terribly long before I propose, but I do want to make sure I get it just right.
[Tartaglia starts to kiss her neck, pleading to let him service her, to make him bow to her will as if he were unable to do anything else without her permission. He needs her, wants her to break him, his mind nothing but a mess of thoughts of Yoimiya that swirl around in his head endlessly. He loves her, he can't do anything without her.
Those emotions float to the surface as he lets out tiny whines while he administers affection to her, aching for her to command him to pleasure her as she sees fit. It's all he wants or cares for, hands wandering across her body to find her sweet sensitive spots and press into them, deft fingers pinching her nipples and sweeping down towards her groin to brush over her inner thigh.]
So until then, my love...accept my pledge, and allow me to drown you with affection for the rest of the night.
no subject
When that time comes, she hopes Tartaglia will be proud of her. She lives and breathes to be a wife worthy of standing by his side. ]
I love you too, Ajax. I love you with all of my heart.
[ So madly and passionately that it sometimes hurts, her heart can't help but ache for him. If anything were to drive them apart, she wouldn't be able to live with herself. What's the point of life if it doesn't have her precious Ajax? He's already sworn his loyalty to her but she can't trust other people to keep their grubby paws off of him. Just thinking about it makes her blood boil, Ajax belongs to her, and if she can't have him then nobody can.
Just to be on the safe side, she needs to ensure he'll never leave her side. A terrible, selfish idea begins to take shape in the confines of her corrupted mind. ]
My dearest Ajax, it will be my honor to accept your pledge. You're always so kind and thoughtful, I know that when the time is right, you'll come up with a proposal that's going to make me the happiest woman in the whole universe. For now, I just want to drown your affections and spend the rest of my evening with you alone. You can have your way with me as you please...
[ Oh, he lavishes her so well. His lips, his hands, his body heat, she needs his touch more than air itself. She moans and tilts her head to the side, allowing him to drink in her to satisfy his hunger, those tantalizing touches make her skin feel like it's on fire, the efforts of his fingers are swiftly rewarded with her nipples growing hard for him once again. All she wants to do is lay down on the bed so he can fulfill his desires, her core yearns for their connection. But first things first.
While he's distracted by the inside of her thighs, Yoimiya takes this as a chance to stealthily slide a hand underneath her pillow where another syringe filled with the drug is hidden. Utensil in hand, she's quick to poke him again, not giving him a chance to respond as she presses down on the tab, injecting him once more. With a giggle so sickeningly sweet, the stare behind her corrupted golden eyes is overflowing with an obsessive love for Ajax that's about to spill over and spiral her down the path of no return. ]
I love you, so, so, so, so much Ajax. Stay here with me forever. Don't think about anyone else, don't look at anyone else. I'm all you need to be happy.
no subject
Tartaglia lets out a satisfied sigh as her nipples grow hard again beneath his fingertips, absolutely distracted by her breasts as he leans down to suck gently on one, tongue rolling lazily over it. Drunk on her body, he doesn't notice how Yoimiya slips her hand underneath her pillow to retrieve the second syringe until he feels the sharp, cold needle puncture his skin. Ajax's eyes widen in surprise, not understanding what's happening until he looks over to see yet another needle in him, this one already emptied completely before he even had the chance to react.]
Wha...
[His voice is confused, already in a daze from the high of Yoimiya's love, her body, and their connection, and there's only a few moments before the world spins and turns upside down.
That helpless feeling he'd had, filled only by the presence of Yoimiya doubles, a pathetic moan spilling out of his mouth, his mouth separating from her breast as his mind loses any sense of agency he might of had. He's not sure what's happening, if the drug she'd injected into him is having some kind of adverse affects on his body, but it doesn't leave him with the ability to do anything about it. Suddenly, his mind focuses in on Yoimiya's voice, her words washing over him like the song of a siren, nodding his head dumbly in response.]
Yes, I...that's right. Yoimiya is all I need. I would never look at anyone else.
[His eyes slowly raise to meet her own, a fog glazing over them now that he seems to be lost in. The radiant golden of her eyes mesmerize him as he gazes deeply into them, eyes half-lidded as he attempts to navigate through the thick fog of Yoimiya's will that's slowly enveloping his thoughts. It's a losing battle as the drug is pumped through his veins, swaying lightly from side to side as he loses control.]
But what about fighting...?
[His question come out as confused, pressing his body to hers with a terrible need, a hunger only for Yoimiya that he can barely restrain.]
Yoimiya...help me, I don't know anymore...
[It's as if the drug gives the corruption more power and sway, and it's a matter of who's more in control of themselves to wield it against the other. Tartaglia is unaware of the battle he's losing, feeling as if he's won everything with this beautiful woman at his side.]
no subject
She disposes of the now empty syringe, sitting back to enjoy his descent into helplessness. Ah, she can't get enough of that precious face he makes, looking so confused and hopelessly in love with her all at the same time. Truly is a powerful serum if it's able to make him question the passion he values most. Come to think of it, it was never people she had to worry about...
But what about fighting...?
Fighting has always been her biggest competition to Tartaglia's heart.
Her mind wanders back to the conversation they had at the mermaid village. Even before that fateful day, she knew that the thrill of battle will always be first in his life. Pre corruption Yoimiya had already come to terms with it and was simply happy to support her beloved's goals. But now that the corruption has her fully in its grip, she's choosing to go down the selfish road, wanting to have Ajax all to herself. Maybe deep down inside, the possibility that he'd rather engage in combat than spend time with her has troubled her more than she realized, and the corruption has finally unearthed those raw emotions. No longer does she want to play second fiddle to fighting, this time, she wishes to be his ambition. ]
What about fighting?
[ To further entice him, she brings her hand to the back of his head, pushing his face into her soft, supple chest he enjoys so much. Tenderly, she threads her fingers through his ginger hair, only stopping to give him gentle scratches to his scalp every so often. A silent promise that she'll continue to shower him with affection so long as they're together. ]
I can fill the void in your heart in ways the thrill of combat can't. My unconditional love, my soft body... I can provide you with everything you need to be fully satisfied.
You love me more than battle... [ She trails off her words, her honeyed eyes pleading with him to declare that he loves her more than anything. ] right?
no subject
Even that question alone that she poses is enough to get him to ask the same of himself. The way she says it, as if fighting and battle were largely unimportant, or even frivolous. It confuses him as doubt about it creeps into his mind, his thoughts blurry and unclear. What about fighting? Why would he ask such a strange, silly question? He could still fight, but does it truly give him the same amount of joy that Yoimiya, the love of his life, his light in the darkness, gives him? Is battle really the most important thing in his life?
As if she could sense his struggle with the topic, he feels her press his face right into her supple, welcoming breasts. Ajax hums with satisfaction at how her smooth skin graces his own, nuzzling into them lovingly as her fingers card through his hair and soothe his spirit. The motion helps ease the question in his heart, finding a warm solace in her words as she speaks.
Yoimiya is already making him feel incredible in a way that fighting doesn't. Even now, fighting was the furthest from his mind, focusing on her and her alone. He can feel every word she speaks, when she says love he feels himself getting filled with it, when she says my soft body he becomes so much more hyperaware of her and how amazing her body is and how aroused she makes him.
She's truly all he needs, all he wants. Why would he want for anything else?]
Yes...
[He moans the answer to her, leaning into her as one of his hands slips down into her groin to slip his fingers back into her. His hunger is insatiable, his eyes betraying his need as he stares into her own with a silent pledge to be by her side forever.]
I love you more than anything else in this world. Nothing can take your place and nothing could ever be placed above you. My light, my star, my world.
[His own dark need creeps into his voice, making sure to find that sweet spot inside of her as his tone lowers to ask her his own question:]
You too, love me more than anything else, right? Nothing else in this world matters more than me?
no subject
At long last, Yoimiya feels like she's finally bested the greatest adversary standing in the way of Tartaglia's heart. Her heart floods with joy as Ajax tells her those words she's been longing to hear, the confirmation that she is more important to him than anyone, anything else. She can see the appeal in fighting, it's exhilarating to come out the victor after a long-fought battle for Ajax's love. A rush of high after overcoming a worthy opponent, she can understand why he's addicted to such a thrilling experience, Yoimiya herself also feels like she is on top of the world.
Pre-corruption Yoimiya would have happily supported her beloved on his journey to become the strongest, a notion she scoffs at now because why did she ever think about sharing this wonderful man to begin with? The Abyssal presence in her soul assures her this is okay, she's just showering him with all the love and affection he deserves, she's won the battle and now it's time to claim her prize; having Ajax all to herself. ]
Oh, Ajax. I love you too... you've made me so happy, it feels like my heart is going to burst— oooh...!
[ He really is so good with his hands, the sensation of his fingers sliding into her wet folds has her aching for more. It's so good, too he's only put a few fingers in but she's already primed to take him once more, her core dampening with every languid stroke. It only gets better when he finds her most sensitive spot, pleasure thrums through her as she gasps and arches her back, rewarding him for his efforts with a sweet symphony of moans and a display of her legs spreading open for him.
As she drowns in his fingers pumping in and out, he poses her the same question. She already knows the answer, Ajax is her one and only ambition. Yoimiya is more than willing to declare her undying devotion to him even as she's moaning and gasping for him. At every opportunity, she will always tell him he's number one in her life. All of her hopes, dreams, and goals are a thing of the past, the love of her life is her future, she doesn't need anything else so long as she has him. ]
I love you more than anything, Ajax. Not even fireworks can compare to you and in my heart, you shine brighter than any firework. There's not a single thing that can take your place, my love. You're my world, the only love of my life, and the one who completes me.
THE END
Nothing could make me more happy to hear that.
[Ajax's mind, after the double dose of the drug in his system and the intensity of the effect which the corruption in his mind has fueled it, is a mess of absolute submission and devotion coupled with the fervent need for Yoimiya to be his and no one else's as well. Her words lock him into place and seal his fate, satisfied with this scenario and now ready to devote the rest of his very being to Yoimiya, forever.]
Let's celebrate, [he suggests, falling under her spell and pushing her backwards onto the bed to give her the proper attention she deserves.]
Let me pleasure you, please you to no end the rest of the night. I want to show you my utter devotion, that I'm nothing without you, my love.
[And as he lays her down on the bed, Ajax begins to smother her with attention, locking lips with her before she even has the chance to respond and starts to worship her body for the rest of the night. Cries of her name on his lips and eyes that stare up at her with a darkness that begs for her to command it are now the new normal from him- and the two of them drown in each other until the sun rises the next day.]
